Let me share a dirty little secret: I'm not all that fond of watching other people (live or in porn) get their kink on.
Hey! I totally want that DVD of The Black Glove back then. (kidding)
Though that DVD is especially interesting in that the female sub is the director. So the element of control and male-gaze takes on several other layers of intrigue. Also, female dommes with business suits over corsets are pretty hot.
Hah. But see, even if you're a lesbian, are you a FEMME lesbian? Well, clearly you've still bought into the patriarchal notion of how you're supposed to look. You just want to PASS! And if you're BUTCH, well--that's just because you are GLORIFYING MASCULINITY, which does not DESERVE to be GLORIFIED! EVIL!!
And don't forget, if you transition to male, it's because you want male privilege! So you are betraying your lesbian compatriots.
And if you're a bisexual woman, you are stealing lesbian energy and giving it to men. Also, you shouldn't go to queer women's events because you endanger lesbians (I don't remember what the argument was for that one).
But if you transition to female, you're co-opting our experience.
So um... if I am parsing this right... if you are a feminist and a woman and a sexual being, chances are UR DOING IT WRONG.
Hello. Bisexuality doesn't exist. Story over.
Just a taste - it involves patriarchy, imperialism, attitudes towards sex and sensual movement in a variety of countries and cultures, feminism, homophobia and gender roles, cultural appropriation, "othering," a long history of dance and sex work overlapping, performers blurring the boundaries consciously and un-... yeah.
I have, in my youth at times, seriously thought, "If I had a better body, I would try to be a stripper right now." The industry is certainly not ideal, but I have known a couple of smart cookies who used it to get through grad school. One, a lesbian sociologist, paid for the down payment on a house that way, too.
My sister!
I was just never... perky enough. Also, too much shaving.
So um... if I am parsing this right... if you are a feminist and a woman and a sexual being, chances are UR DOING IT WRONG.
Well, someone somewhere will tell you loudly and at length that you are. Possibly with multiple cites.
So um... if I am parsing this right... if you are a feminist and a woman and a sexual being, chances are UR DOING IT WRONG.
And if you're a man UR BORN WRONG.
if you are a feminist and a woman and a sexual being, chances are UR DOING IT WRONG.
Well, and if you're not a sexual being, is it because you are SEX NEGATIVE??
if you are a feminist and a woman and a sexual being, chances are UR DOING IT WRONG.
This often happens with being a woman, feminist, and sexual being, in many flavors.

That one is a marked exception. SO. HOT. SO SO HOT.
Also, female dommes with business suits over corsets are pretty hot.
I don't disagree. Yum.
